Electrolytic bath equipped with a waterway converter for ionized water producer

Abstract

An electrolytic bath has a waterway converter that allows the ionized water outlets to discharge the same species of ionized water even if the polarity of the produced ionized water at the polar chamber has been reversed in order to prohibit the formation of the scale at the electrode. The waterway converter includes a cylinder-shaped valve housing and a cylindrical-bar shaped valve body wherein the valve body is rotated in accordance with the inversion of polarity at the chamber in such a way that the central linking pipe and linking pipe are alternatively linked to the alkaline and acid ionized water outlets.

1. A waterway converter for an electrolytic bath of an ionized water producer, comprising:
 a valve housing having a cylindrical shape, integrated as a single body with the electrolytic bath, said housing including, 
 an isolation wall on which a central inlet and a side inlet are formed at an end for a link to ionized water lines in the electrolytic bath, and  
 both an acidic ionized water outlet and an alkaline ionized water outlet formed on a surface of the outer circumference of the valve housing; and  
 
 a valve body, rotating in said valve housing, the valve body including a central linking pipe formed at an end such that it is in contact with said isolation wall of said valve housing and it is outwardly protruded from inside the valve body, forming a ring-type waterway, said central linking pipe and said ring-type waterway being respectively linked to a central linking hole having a bent shape and a side linking hole provided in said valve body, and said acidic and alkaline ionized water outlets are alternately switched to be linked to the central linking hole and the side linking hole when the valve body is rotated,  
 wherein said outlets of said valve housing are located along a line that is perpendicular to a rotational axis of the valve body.  
 
     
     
       2. The waterway converter as set forth in  claim 1 , wherein said valve housing has a removable threaded holding ring on a wall of said electrolytic bath, and a threaded line is formed on the outer circumference of a front end of the valve housing, the ionized water lines being formed on side walls of the electrolytic bath and a protruding extension-upholding pipe being formed at the central inlet of said isolation wall to be linked to one of the ionized water lines, and another of the ionized water lines being linked to the side inlet and the sidelinking hole and forming a waterway through said protruding extension upholding pipe, said threaded holding ring, and said isolation wall.
